CONTROL SYSTEM FOR ELECTRIC VEHICLE

A control system for an electric vehicle configured to simulate an engine stall which might occur in conventional vehicles while preventing the simulation of the engine stall in an unfavorable situation. A controller of the control system is configured to: execute an engine stall control to simulate a behavior of the conventional vehicle in a situation where an engine stall occurs by stopping a motor, when a virtual engine speed calculated by a virtual engine speed calculator falls below a predetermined speed; and execute a hold assist control to apply a brake torque to the wheel by the brake device upon execution of the engine stall control.
